Bloody Fucking Hell

How is that a movie based on the most pivital war in American history has two Brits as the leads? SOUTHERNERS???

As much as I love Jude Law (bless his perfect facial structure) and Nicole Kidman (who is actually Australian, not British), WTF are they doing being cast in a movie about the Civil War? And directed by a BRITISH director?

Don't get me wrong, I love my brits. It's just that I'm reminded of JKR's strict demand for an all british (or, more to the point, a cast that is actually native to where they are supposed to be playing from). WTF? WHHHHYYYY?? I mean, I can understand Brits being cast for the Revolutionary war, because most of the "rebels" were first gen emmigrants from Britain. BUT WHHHHYYY???

Seriously, it's like...the only American lead in this movie is Renee Zelwegger, but if she had fallen off the horse during filming of this movie, I really wouldn't be that upset.

Oh, and it was filmed in FUCKING ROMANIA.

I'll give you one thing, it sure would suck to become a widow 12 hours after your wedding night.
